BHS Grading Procedures and Incompletes


Students who do not take the final exam in a course will receive an “I” (incomplete) as a grade for that course. The student then has 10 school days to complete the final exam or the incomplete grade converts to a failing grade.

Furthermore, students must complete prerequisites to qualify to take the final exam in the course. Students will be required to complete at least 60% of formative assessments and must complete 100% of summative assessments to qualify to take the course final exam. The rule related to the 60% requirement of formative assessment and 100% requirement of summative assessment can be waived by the classroom teacher. If the teacher decides to waive that rule, it has to be consistent for the whole class.
